Body mass index and waist-to hip ratio in patients of a stomatologic ambulance.

The decision limits of the BMI of 25 and 30 used in this paper are commonly defined as the thresholds of overweight and obesity, respectively. Our prevalence data are well comparable to those of other studies but show some special features. Thus, the frequency of moderate overweight (BMI = 25-29.9) in Freiberg is obviously higher than reported for men and women (not age-specified) in the United Kingdom, The Netherlands, United States, and Australia. Our data differ from Rosenbaum's results of a survey of heights and weights in Great Britain 1980 in the following respects: 1) Higher frequency of overweight in the middle-aged groups (30-59 years) of both sexes and 2) higher prevalence of obesity in women aged 40-59 and in men aged 30-39. Comparison of our data to those of a representative Finnish survey exhibits lower prevalence of obesity (BMI greater than or equal to 30) in the age groups 40 to 69 but a surplus prevalence of obesity in men aged 30-39. The latter seems to be a special German feature which was also seen in the DHP study. The Waist-to Hip Ratios (WHR) in this study were focused on the persons with BMI greater than 25 in whom they are important for further specification of the cardiovascular risk. The android fat distribution pattern is assumed at WHR above 1.0 in men and 0.85 in women. We found the android pattern in 20-61% of the men and in 37-76% of the women with BMI greater than 25 whereby this percentage steadily increases with age in both sexes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

[Cartilage reshaping by laser in stomatology and maxillofacial surgery].

The restoration of congenital and traumatic malformations of the head and neck, together with the defects resulting from the trauma of ablative surgery, continue to pose significant problems to surgeons. The post-operative results are not always satisfactory because of the difficulty of shaping the cartilage and because of the tendency of cartilage to return to its original shape. Better understanding of laser-cartilage interaction and the development of a specific instrumentation Lasers (CO2, Nd: YAG, Ho: YAG) has enabled ex situ and in situ cartilage reshaping. A recent clinical study has demonstrated that nondestructive laser irradiation can reshape septal deviations

[Use of Diprivan in ENT and stomatology].

Irrespective of the type of surgery, patient monitoring, including ECG-automated non-invasive blood pressure measurements, SpO2, FIO2 and capnography, is compulsory. Sedation: no initial bolus injection of propofol; continuous infusion of propofol at a rate of 1 to 4 mg.kg-1.h-1, using a syringe pump, combined with a short-acting opioid such as alfentanil. General anaesthesia: initial bolus injection of propofol between 2 and 3.5 mg.kg-1, combined with 10 mg of lidocaine in the same syringe; maintenance with a syringe pump: 6 to 9 mg.kg-1.h-1 combined with an opioid, with or without coadministration of muscle relaxants. Intubation avoiding respiratory depression: syringe pump with a fast infusion rate (50 to 100 mg.min-1), which allows induction with propofol and intubation without co-administration of muscle relaxants.

Stomatology--an intriguing blend of traditional Chinese medicine and Western-style dentistry.

I have long been fascinated by the antiquity and mystique of Chinese medicine, but try as I might, I could find virtually nothing in print, nor trace anybody in Britain who professed to know much about dental treatment in modern China. I decided, therefore, to visit China and find out myself exactly what dentists do in the Peoples' Republic of China, and satisfy my professional curiosity about how their work might relate to traditional medical practices.
